Looks like a pillow case to me, or maybe some cotton

Jazmin Nebula

Obviously, the Toasted Marshmallow Nebula!

Pillow is not bad either, mind you.

It looks a lot like Meringue (i.e. Lemon Meringue Pie).

I agree that at first glance the nebula looks like a pillow with stuffing. Since the nebula appears near the Swan constellation, I propose the name The Swan's pillow nebula. J Husek Boulder Colorado.

Looks a bit like a Space Shuttle from below and in front so I suggest the name Space Shuttle nebula.

[HobbitDad]

The Avalanche Nebula

[THSasatroClass]

The Morning Star Nebula

[beecroft]

Flying Squirrel.

[LSTERNDALE]

It looks like the Star Trek insignia - Why not the Star Trek Nebula?

[Terry]

The BubbleBath Nebula!

[mickeygrump]

The Shepherd's Fleece

[livicwhite]

Pokemon Nebula

[billclawson]

As has been mentioned several times... Rocky, the Flying Squirrel Nebula.

[Vmartin]

Pillow Nebula.

[beecroft]

[loquin]

the brighter core is roughly oval, and it's near cygnus, so... Swans Egg Nebula

or since the entire nebula appears more rectangular in shape, the Flying Carpet Nebula

[tranquillitybase3]

PLEASE do not call it Patrick

Looks like a pillow to me.

[Guest]

It reminds me of one of those shooting star things from my kid's Wii Mario Galaxy game. Anyone like the Shooting Star Nebula?

[kknn]

It looks like a pillow to me. I guess this is the reason Thor dropped his helmet elsewhere in the sky

[BMAONE23]

For shape and appearance, as pictorially suggested above, The Flying Squirrel Nebula

[ProstheticForeheads]

I, too, got Flying Squirrel... like immediately.
